Russians are not ethnically communist

Nor are they actually communist, despite claims they might have made to operating under that ideology.

Russia is fascist authoritarianism.

My opinion is that no government was truly communist for long as it depends too much on people's altruism, of which there is little. Any government that claims to be communist isn't.

Communism will always be an unstable political system, it always decays into some sort of corrupt authoritarianism due to humans' self-serving nature.
